A delightfully colourful introduction to the orchestra, aimed to fire the imagination of children aged 49 years. There is a special guide in the book: a little green creature called Tormod. He is a troll who has come all the way from the top of a mountain in Norway to discover music. As he searches for the music that will help him to find his way home, readers learn about the different instrumentswhat they look and sound like, and how they belong in different families. Throughout the book children are referred to the tracks on the CD or onlinehowever they prefer to listenso that they can hear examples as they read. There is a musical quiz at the end, with multiple choice answers.

37 classical music tracks on the CD and on the webpage include: SarasatesCarmen Fantasy, Mozarts Overture toThe Magic Flute, Tchaikovskys Russian Dance fromThe Nutcracker, Coplands Clarinet Concerto, Wagners Overture toTannhuser, Griegs In the Hall of the Mountain King fromPeer Gyntand many more.
